FWIW, we have been early adopters and promoters of singularity (largely within neuroimaging field), using it "daily". - using https://singularity-hub.org/ as a public builder/archive for some images - keeping all images under VCS using datalad (git-annex), with help of https://github.com/datalad/datalad-container - to facilitate archival, and reproducible execution (only recently singularity came up with -e) established https://github.com/ReproNim/containers/ which is a collection of singularity images for neuroimaging + a helper https://github.com/ReproNim/containers/blob/master/scripts/singularity_cmd to ensure absent leakage of the outside env inside the containerized (without using -e) + where possible/needed (OSX) execute it via docker (there are some gotchas to resolve with some containers but generally should work) May be would be of some help/information -- Yaroslav O.
